20 Examples Of How The Dead Contact Us With Messages Or Signs

I have published many posts about white feathers and white doves and how these may, at times, be thought of as messages or signs from the dead.

On one of the posts a reader left a comment telling how a loved one had died recently but she hadn't seen any white feathers - and how she was hoping she would soon.

I'd like to clarify that not everyone sees white feathers or doves. Messages or signs can come in many different forms, often unique to an individual. I have previously given an example of when my own dad died:

"My son had just told us that he had qualified as a Chartered Accountant, which takes quite a few years work here in the UK. I was, of course, chuffed to bits about this and, after talking about it with my wife, I went upstairs to our bedroom.

I wanted to get something or other out of my wardrobe and, for some reason, I was wondering what my father, now deceased, would have thought about my son's success. As I reached into the wardrobe a small bag fell out.

The bag just happened to be one in which I kept a few of my dad's possessions. Nothing of value but they all mean something to me: his old watch, cigarette case, penknife, wedding ring, darts, a tie and a few other trinkets, all full of memories.

I then looked at the watch. Dad was always one for punctuality and often asked, "Do you know what time it is?" when I was a teenager either arriving home at night or getting up late in the morning. Then I noticed the time where the hands of the watch had stopped and have remained ever since.

The time on the watch was exactly the time that my son had been born (3.20 pm).

Perhaps I was in an emotional state but this really hit me. It was as if it was a message from my father saying he knew all about his grandson." Source.

I wasn't aware of seeing any white feathers or doves after my dad's death. I first noticed them following the death of my mother and then two other very close people in my life.

There are a myriad of ways the deceased could contact us. I think we experience a gut instinct of what is real to us personally when we receive some sort of message. It's hard to describe, but it feels right - a moment of knowing perhaps.

What follows are links that show various ways people claim to have received messages or signs from those who have passed over.

I'd better stop there at twenty examples. I realise some readers may not believe all of the stories in the posts listed. Some will say we are fooling ourselves when we think we have received some sort of message or sign from the dead. That's okay, it's up to us to decide what we want to believe.

I started blogging about six years ago, my main blog now being 67 Not Out - the initial idea was to write about coincidences and synchronicity but I then moved on to other themes as well and currently write about things that interest me: the mysteries of life for example - what the heck is it all really about?
